  1. I agreed to one of the PI's being a bad call, hence I will take it. So I guess the Zebra's are the reason for Brady tossing 4Tds and over 300+ yards? Is it also the Zebras that are running alongside Gronk and getting in between him and the defender so he can make the catch? I guess the Zebra's are also interfering with the Bills O-line to allow the Pats D-line to get sacks and tackles for losses. You're right, I think I saw a referee down in the endzone on Tym's 43 yard TD in triple coverage who actually tied all 3 DB's hands together so they couldn't make a play on the ball. Give me a break, the Bills were outplayed in this game and those calls wouldn't of changed much.
  2. Only bad PI call was on Watkins. The one before that you're talking about the DB didn't turn his head around. They'll call that everytime, it's a fundamental rule that's taught in high school and college, a professional DB should know better. Also, he didn't get pushed into Brady, the ball was gone and he hit Brady in the knees, you could maybe argue it if Brady was still holding onto it. If you recall, that's how he tore his ACL and it's a rule implemented to protect Qb's. Plus, I'll take the bad calls, it's nice to get some our way this season.
  3. Wasn't 1st pass incomplete then 2nd pass to Edelman ? Might be imagining an imaginary play, was a good night at the Canucks game last night
  4. Wow talk about clock management. Patriots force fumble with 6 seconds left in the half, no time outs, 2 quick passes to get into field goal territory and kick a 53 yard field goal, and will get ball to start 2nd half.
  5. Is Sammy Watkins playing in this game? Don't know why BB used Revis in zone coverage first 4 weeks, but dude has been earning that 14 mill/season contract last 2 games in man to man. Sucks that Browner was a late inactive this week again, don't know if his conditioning just isn't up to par, or whether it was a financial move because by missing today's game, his games played bonus is void now. Being superstitious, I realized I never get to draft Brady in fantasy football, and the one year I do (this season) in both my money and CDC leagues, he plays bad. Dropped him after week 4, and not only has he been playing great the last game and a half, but my replacement for him in my money league was none other than Joe Flacco, 5 TDs today!
  6. Yup, definitely a tough schedule. Glad that Browner will be healthy and rested. BB specifically shored up the secondary because of this season's schedule, otherwise we would probably be starting Ryan and Dennard at corner with Arrington in the slot. I'm just glad the bye is after the Broncos game, because I would rather lose that one and have BB have 2 weeks to game plan for Luck, Stafford and Rodgers than have 4 weeks straight with Peyton Manning in that mix.
  7. Patriots have given up the fewest fantasy points to wide receivers. If only the run defense can shore up now.
  8. What do you find worse: the anxiety building up to an exam, the process of writing the exam, or awaiting the results of the exam?

      APA format and lab reports are my sore spot lol.

      I hate waiting. I always just want to know.

      Awaiting the results is the worse by far. Especially, when it takes forever for all the tests to be marked.

  9. Hoping Brian Tyms is dressed for Sunday's game coming off his 4 game suspension and sat last week due to conditioning. He's not a NFL #1 WR, but he can be our #1 WR. He was the Patriots practice player of the week last week because he played the role of AJ Green against Revis all week. At 6'3 204lbs with a 40 yard speed of 4.4 and a 39.5 inch vertical, he can be an outside deep threat. He definitely showed his ability in the pre season. Just to compare his size to actual #1 WR's in the NFL: Demariyus Thomas: 6'3 229lbs Calvin Johnson: 6'5 236lbs Julio Jones: 6'3 220lbs Dez Bryant: 6'2 218lbs McDaniels will probably not use him anyways.
  10. Didn't EJ Manuel's college coach say he was a waste of a high 1st round pick? Dude is garbage. He's not even in a terrible situation like Geno in NY who has zero weapons on offense, Manuel was given Watkins and Williams this year along with Chandler at TE and Spiller/Jackson in the backfield and he still sucks. Other 2nd year QBs would kill for those weapons. Hell, Brady would kill for a guy like Watkins on offense. As for the score, I see the dual TE set giving the Buffalo LBs trouble all day, opening up Edelman and Vereen. On Defense, we'll give up the yards to Spiller and Jackson but bend don't break, keep them to FGs and the secondary will play to not give up big plays. 31-20 Pats
  11. I'm not sure I understand the bolded statement. Are you saying that a secondary can't get exposed without their team losing? Arian Foster seems to be exposing the Colts linebackers, but the Colts will probably still win the game. I'm not sure why LOB can't have a bad game here and there but the Seahawks still win.
  12. Bose wouldn't cut ties with NFL because Kaepernick, who has been well known to be a Beats guy long before Bose became a sponsor, wore Beats. Do you know how pathetic and insecure that would make Bose look? Beats is already dominating the market right now, Bose wouldn't lose out on an advertising opportunity like this over 1 player.
  13. Hilton is going to have a 500 yard game
  14. Any Texans fans want me to do them a favor and bet on the Colts?
  15. Not really intrigued by tonight's game. Can't believe the spread is only 2.5 points. The winner takes lead of the division, I expect Luck to have another 300+ yard game and Colts to easily cover the spread.
  16. Another gem from NFL.com re: the pats Human resources needs to be cleaned out over at NFL.com and they need to start from scratch and hire all new, qualified, non moron staff. The writers over there are like that one friend who will talk crap behind another friend's back, but when said friend is around, the crap talker acts like they're best friends.
  17. Week 4 would disagree with the bolded statement
  18. 9 Comments Share In a new column for SportsOnEarth.com, former NFL offensive lineman Ross Tucker lays out a personal portrait ofTom Brady that only a teammate could paint. The lineman-turned-media-personalitys article is a fine, entertaining read, portraying Brady as the fire-in-the-belly competitor we all picture him to be. The most novel and important takeaway from the piece, of course, is that New Englands quarterback punishes beers at mach speed. In his piece, Tucker gives an anecdote from his brief time on the Patriots roster in 2005. As the story goes, Brady stepped up in the middle of an impromptu beer-chugging competition and demolished the largest men on the New England offensive line. We went to a local barbecue place near the stadium in Foxboro after practice one time, and there were two different occasions where Bradys eyes displayed his trademark fire. The first was when some of the veteran offensive linemen started talking to the rookies about a chugging contest. No big deal for these guys and given that they were fresh out of college, you would think theyd be at the top of their game. I was surprised to see Brady take part. The rookies looked at the seemingly pretty boy quarterback and laughed. I think I snickered myself. We all shouldve known better. I still have never seen anybody chug a beer faster than Tom Brady. You shouldve seen the way he slammed down his cupit was like he was spiking the ball after a TD. Tucker goes on to write that Brady followed up his beer-destroying heroics by demanding to pay his teammates tab. They agreed, as the quarterback looked like a physical confrontation would break out if they refused. Of all the Brady stories youll hear, Tuckers might be the most patently Brady. Touchdown Tom possesses zero chill in all situations, football or otherwise. Whether hes celebrating, pouting or demanding the best out of his teammates, the Patriots quarterback goes full speed, full attack. Of course Brady can down hops at record rates. Im surprised he didnt eat the cup for emphasis.
  19. Jim Schwartz being carried off was incredibly pathetic. Yeah, sure, you beat a team that you led to a 29-57 record or something .. not much to be proud of. In fact, he should be happy some team was desperate enough to hire him as a co-ordinator.
  20. We'll trade you our O-line for yours
  21. Thought they had to trade Boldin because they couldn't afford him with Flaccos new deal?
  22. Wilson is definitely a top 10 QB. But Elite? I wouldn't give him that label yet. To earn the Elite status he needs a few seasons of work in his portfolio to show a) consistency and b ) he doesn't need to rely on dump offs to Lynch or their great defense to win games; have people say the Seahawks won because of Wilson's play, not they won because of the defense or the ground game and Wilson just didn't turn the ball over. Right now their offense is designed around short passes and let the playmakers make play. That's not to say Wilson can't throw the deep ball, because I've seen him throw many accurate deep balls, but their system revolves heavily around Lynch and Harvin. Next year will be an important season for him in regards to the building of the elite status. He will command a hefty raise and the cap hits for other guys go up significantly too and Seattle will lose key pieces like Lynch, Wright, maybe a member of LOB. The focal point to win games will become Wilson and not the defense or 12th man. Feel free to criticize my opinion but I feel it's an accurate, unbiased opinion. He could also just go the Flacco route, give himself the title, and screw over his team financially.
  23. Is there anyone Gruden doesn't like? "You know what, I like _______" seems like it's said after every play
  24. Not just tonight's refs, the refs in general all over the NFL. Exhibit 1: last night
  25. Does anyone really care (besides fantasy owners) or does it really matter that Montee Ball is out a few weeks? Denver hates running the ball anyways, and no defense lines up before the snap preparing to stop the run against Denver. Don't think their offense changes one bit personally.
